Resumo: In chromatography, instrumental advances and column technology have conducted to faster analysis with a notable increase in the separation power. Besides that, the miniaturization has gained prominence and proving to be a trend in recent years. In the case of miniaturized liquid chromatography the advantages are concentrated in the lower consumption of sample, sorbent and mobile phase as well as the lower flow rate of the reduced column dimensions that increase the sensitivity of detectors that are sensitive to concentration owing to the lower dilution. In this context, there is a decrease on the column inner diameter, which requires special conditions to obtain columns with high efficiency. As a consequence, different types of miniaturized columns as micro-packed, as monolithic, open tubular and columns prepared in chips are potentials to be exploited in liquid chromatography on either micro or nano scales. These columns will be described and evaluated in this review.
